Binding of prostaglandin E2, to blood in man

D C Brown, J G Collier
PMCID: PMC1402601  PMID: 1233995

Abstract

1 A new dialysis technique has been used to investigate the binding of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to circulating blood in five subjects.

2 The results indicate that added PGE2 binds to blood, that the binding is to plasma albumin, and that binding is complete within 40 s of adding PGE2.
